Not much time for the garage today, but I got a few things done, I like the contrast. I can’t quite get the camera to capture what I like about the two different blacks, but close. The third pic is closest.

Man, you blew right past the 'fresh off the assembly line' point of reference and powered straight into the Senseless Beauty zip code.

Be sure to tell your son that he will be driving on top of a aerospace quality restoration. (Insert salute in your general direction.)

This thread has been (& continues to be) pure pleasure to watch as it progresses. Q: Is is me, or are the grade 8 markings on
the bolt heads lined up with the frame? ;0)

Wow. :waytogo:

Thank you Sir, and to answer your question, only some of them. I’ll have to go back and fix the others later. JK. :biggrin:

And for today’s update, we got the rear end in and the tires on the ground. This is right at ride height.

Hopefully this works this time. The pop up video ads have this site so glitchy it keeps kicking me out and refreshing.

It's so much nicer putting new parts back together after pulling all that dirty stuff out. And more fun too.

Looking great! Those absorbers look very familiar (my OCD, however, forced me to mount them in the opposite orientation to match the front absorbers).

Are you sure that your fronts are oriented correctly?
